Ha! A little over a month...WATCH OUT

So there is a first time for everything...it has only been a little over a month and here I am. Today I am blogging because I need to.  I have been running (all self induced situations) around like a chicken with my head cut off and finally today, after getting all my orders in the mail, I decided that I wanted to eat dinner and go to bed. Well I ate dinner, bathed two wild children, gave my awesome husband a great big hug and then thought I need five minutes for me. So here I am - ready to type for my release and off to bed I go. 
I am not even sure where to start simply because there has been so much going on. I have been monogramming and appliquing (not sure if that is really a word???) to no end, which is great, but with a full time teaching job, two children, a husband, and well other duties; I am exhausted.

I can start by sharing that Cam lost another tooth. I love him so much it is crazy and love his "Landon" like ways.  Landon is my husband and is a wonderful man, husband, and daddy, but the man CANNOT take blood. Which gets me to the back to Cameron. His tooth is loose, but he refuses to let anyone pull it. Finally after lengthy conversations about how it needs to come out, he agrees to let me pull it. I get a washcloth and go to yank and it pops.  If you have ever lost or pulled a tooth, you probably remember the "pop". The pop sent Camerin into a frenzy yelling about his tooth, however the tooth is still attached. I cannot help but laugh. Landon enters the room and tells Cameron is going to pull the tooth.  Cameron allows this and the tooth is out in like two seconds.  [Landon part here] What happens after you pull a tooth?  Blood. Cam freaks and when I say freaks, he keeps touching his mouth and carrying on about how much blood is in his tooth.  We finally get him to calm down and the blood eventually stops.  Fast Forward to the next day....We (Cam, Laney, and I ) are all in Target. They are playing on the toy aisle while I talk to my friend Amy on the phone. I am telling her about the tooth and the blood, laughing about Landon's dislike of blood when Cameron whips around the corner and says "Mom, just so you know, I don't do blood!" Love it...just like his daddy. 

Where is Laney in all this?  Trying to convince us she has a loose tooth at the ripe old age of 4. She will keep you laughing! Her latest obsession is my embroidery machine.  She has great ideas and is always wanting to suggest designs. I love it. I got a text from her aftercare teacher telling me about their conversation regarding shirts.  Needless to say, we now have one in the works for Ms. Tiffany.  Laney is too much fun and sometimes just too much! 

What else....well I don't like airing my dirty laundry, but after almost 11 years of marriage, I think we had our BIGGEST disagreement/issue ever. I will say that thanks to our communication skills (definitely more Landon's than mine) we came through it, but not a situation I wish to do again. This is not to say our marriage is perfect, that is impossible, but it is good. And as cheesy as this is going to sound, I honestly think I am in love with him more than when we got married.  It is amazing what God gives us! 

What else? Well...honestly I am too tired to think . Anxiously antincipating May...well February 17th....heck any day for rest especially since ball season is on the way.............

Last but not least....can I please tell you how excited I am about a special person expecting a baby boy!!!! Crazy to be this excited, but I cannot wait!

Off to bed I go!

  1. Love the blog!!!! OMG Laney and Xavier are just the same. After Raina's first tooth, and he saw that she got a 2.00 bill he swore he had a loose tooth as well. My aunt warned me to keep an eye on the hammer just in case he tried to take it to far...no worries yet! I a m glad that everything is well and I can't wait until we get together again...after all, I haven't even met Laney yet!!!
